Gregg Truelove back aboard the familiar blue #44 would also work his way through traffic holding off the hard charge of Randy Ainsworth #57, to place fourth leaving Ainsworth in fifth. Heat race winners included Web Bestgen #15b and Doug Keller #77.

USRA Stock Cars were again in fine form as Dean Wray #77 would tighten the ever changing point battle by picking up the feature win. Wray was challeneged every step of the way by second place finisher Thomas Roberts #65x in a barrowed race car. Other top contender of the night Jeff Dixon #88 would use the high line to challenge both Wray and Roberts, slipping late t place third. Jake Cameron #86c would race his way to a solid fourth place finish, with Phil Snodgrass recovering from an early race mishap to finish fifth. Heat race winners were Dean Wray and Jeff Dixon.

USRA Modifieds would see the reigning track champion Steven Glenn #26s pilot his way to victory lane for the first time in the 2014 racing season at I-35 Speedway. Glenn would use the low line to perfection as Bud Wilson #75 would challenge often only to be forced into a second place finish. Point leader Zach Sanders #69 would recover from a mid-race spin charging through the pack to finish third. Jim Hopkins #71 would battle for the lead early only to slide late to place fourth. Richard Layne #0 would pilot his racecar to a solid fifth place showing. Heat race winners were Bud Wilson and Zach Sanders.
